Pomball: Ridge is full of energy. I tried a few things with this yarn, but it was so bold and expressive that it seemed to take over. So I decided to just give simplicity free range and then top it with a large, whimsical, button-trimmed pomball. Three ridge sections dominate the hat, but a plain section at the back lets the slouch do its thing.
I love the button on this! It really showcases one of the cool things about pomballs. A pompom you can attach special details to? Love it.
Remember, you can see 15 second videos of me wearing and talking about each of the hats over on Instagram: click to see them.
